Minor Bugs, Minor Suggestions (pre/post 22nd update)

elandarksky

-*insert obvious warning*-
Spoilers may follow, dont want a spoil? dont read!

*Introduction*
-Introduction cut scene, Speed of text might be TOO quick for some, i looked away for a minute and missed a heck of a lot of text

-In first map of tutorial, NPC pathing takes npcs up and through a wall near the first engineer captain option ("a Day in the Sun")

-Nevala NPC appears to be wielding a phaser weapon? (going by looks)

(from missions)

-'the serch for new romulus'
'Investigate Gamma Eridon' A bridge officer complains about the enemies you are facing 'what next the iconians' Pretty sure rommies dont know about them? (might just be my bad memory)
The fight with tholian commander+2 lieutenants seems to be very difficult, the aoe aura radition overwhelmed me a few times (maybe its my inexperiance fighting tholians, but it was way too much to heal), plus following the radiation attacks i was hit by substantial lag, might be coincidental but nevertheless it happened

-'Space Chase' (trying to not spoiler) My ship isnt a brel (cutscene)

-Mission: Smash and grab: Boffs on ship replaced with alien faces, kinda wierd (further into the mission, my tacical officer jokes with himself about being careful about his aim... yeah im kinda worried my tactical officer has gone bonkers ((freighter 3))

-Mission: Enemy action: Subcommander Rhen under being bullied repeats himself "I had extra guard placed around his cell... I had extra guards placed around his cell"

-Mission: Sleepers: Download borg Data 'maxinum range scans detecting mating species [corrupted]' MATING!? what WHERE the borg watching O.o;
(also, why do borg have turbolifts?)

Stand-alone graphical Errors

-'romulan civilian rolled medium collar' Costume on male romulan has clipping errors, looks like im going hulk and popping out my muscles

-When using tricorder scan (V key) we get a blue federation aura, where KDF get red, could rommies get green?

-After joining the KDF as a romulan male, facial expression is no longer happy... just scowling, please let us choose between our cheery demenor and misery demenor after joining the kdf?

Sound-Related

-Ground CPR ability missing sound effects

-Warp out SFX, shouldn't romulan/klingon/other alien vessels have a different warp out sound (klingons sounds like a wierd explosion) and i vaugley remember romulans having a more 'droning' like sound) just wondering (too add immersion)


-System related-

-Plasma shockwave... 1 crit ALL crit (thinking of how mines worked and got fixed in the past)((only saw this occur once, so not 100% sure if it is so))

-Before entering a ground map, when prompted to confirm the awayteam is what you want, the abilities listed include space abilities

Suggestions/Requests

- Transwarp to affiliated homebase (ESD/Qonos)

- Transwarp animation camera swing/zoom out gets slightly irritating after a while, when warping into a system, can we please have a toggle?)

-Access to C-store ships (test for bugs,) better to get bugs out of system before people buy the ships and arnt pleased with a buggy ship



-Afterthoughts-
The Initial romulans in the tutorial (before you get your first ship) dont feel like romulans.. they sound too human.. (not helpful i know but eh.) Some idomatic expressions or greetings could be altered, throw in a few romulan references, animals, foods etc, add a dash of teh old culture to the dialogue.

An example of *it sounds out of place*

'Neutral no more' frieghter captain of SS Daeandle uses the expression 'anything he tries to sell you - it'll turn out to be a lemon' sticks out like a sore thumb to me ^^, such a human expression for a completely alien entity to use O.o;

Enough of that,

While the choice of faction came a bit earlier than expected, im glad that we still have a more romulan focused storyline, rather than pasting missions with a rom flavour, much appreciated.

And high praise must be passed along, the romulan faction feels very nice, it will be interesting to see how popular romulan ships will be (a slight worry, they seem to have everything at the price of nothing e.g. good turn rates, battle cloaks, added abilities for yet costing nothing

Though another small nitpick,

It feels like there are too many 'home' locations, it took me 10minutes to realise that i pick my new ship up from new romulus as opposed to the flotilla, but then again that might just be my silliness )

it is still possible to fall into the singularity pit in engineering.
